Slow-release nitrogen (N) sources, also called “slowly available,” are a part of many turfgrass fertilization programs. They provide greater longevities of available N than quick-release sources, and are safer to use on turfgrass because of their lower burn potential. This group includes both coated and uncoated sources.

Sulfur-Coated Urea (SCU)

Sulfur Coated Urea (SCU) is an economical slow-release fertilizer produced by coating a urea granular with Sulfur and wax. Sulfur is very effective at repelling water; however sulfur coatings can be brittle. To protect the sulfur from breaking down too quickly, a wax is applied over the sulfur layer to stabilize the nitrogen release curves. Once water finds its way inside, the granule expands and the coating factures allowing urea to flow out. SCU works on the premise that some granules will take longer to fracture and release their nutrients than others. Over the course of time, this “mix” of release times results in continuous nitrogen feeding.

SCU™ is a slow-release sulfur coated fertilizer and pioneer in the enhanced efficiency fertilizer technologies. SCU's sulfur and wax coating slows the breakdown of the urea particle, which provides extended nutrition from 6-8 weeks. The standard SGN of SCU has a nitrogen (N) content of 39% and a sulfur content of 13%.

Longevity: 6-8 Weeks

SGN: Standard and Micro

Benefits:

• Economical Slow-Release Fertilizer
• Increases Nitrogen Efficiency (ROI)
• Improves Plant Nutrition
• Reduces Leaching and Runoff
• Adds Sulfur to the Soil 

Polymer Coated Sulfur Coated Urea (PCSCU)

Polymer Coated Sulfur Coated Urea (PCSCU) is urea coated with sulfur and polymer. PCSCU also has an outer wax layer. Because of the improved performance provided by the polymer layer, PCSCU nutrients are released more consistently over a longer time than traditional SCUs. PCSCU is essentially the “Cadillac” of coated SRN fertilizers; it is the most expensive to manufacture but provides the longest and most steady nitrogen release properties. 

XCU® Slow-Release Fertilizer is unique to the market and provides reliable, steady nutritional uptake for up to 10 weeks of plant response. XCU® fertilizer has a high nitrogen (N) content (43%) with the addition of sulfur (4%), which provides added nutrition to the plant and can amend the soil. The value of a slow-release fertilizer like XCU® is that more area can be covered per application using less fertilizer, which is more efficient and economical. Also, with less N lock-off, more of the applied N is taken up and utilized by turfgrass or plants in the desired time frame. 

Longevity: 45 day / 10 Weeks

SGN: Standard and Mini

Benefits:

• Unique polymer and sulfur coating technology provides gradual, consistent and cost-effective slow-release nitrogen. 
• Dual-coated technology provides up to 10 weeks of plant response. 
• Contains sulfur which offers additional nutrition to the plant and can amend the soil. 
• Highly flowable for ease of handling and consistent application. 
• Environmentally responsible with low potential for nutrient leaching, denitrification, runoff or volatilization. 
• Increased percentage of XCU® fertilizer in blends delivers increased value and improved nutrient uptake. 
• Fewer applications can reduce overall fertilizer expense, fuel costs and equipment upkeep; allows for optimization of labor. 

Reacted Slow-Release Nitrogen

Reacted Slow-Release Nitrogen consists of urea granules which are not coated with any polymers, sulfur, or waxes. Instead, formaldehyde is reacted with urea granules to produce both methylene urea and urea-formaldehyde molecules. These new molecules form chains of varying lengths which help prevent against volatilization and leaching. This technology works harmoniously with natural soil microbes. Over time, microbes slowly break apart these chains, resulting in continuous nitrogen availability for up to 26 weeks. Reacted slow-release nitrogen is influenced by soil temperature and moisture content. 

NUTRALENE® Slow-Release Fertilizer is a methylene urea (MU) source with a guaranteed analysis of 40-0-0. Widely applied by turfgrass professionals, the consistent, long-lasting release of nutrition for up to 16 weeks provides a cost-effective, low-maintenance solution to effectively increase root growth, which helps to improve turfgrass health. NUTRALENE® fertilizer offers a range of sizes giving you the maximum in rate flexibility.

Stabilized Nitrogen is designed to inhibit the conversion of urea into nitrogen products which are no longer readily available for plant use. Stabilized nitrogen products reduce volatilization, nitrification/denitrification rates and leaching potential. In essence, stabilized nitrogen disrupts the nitrogen cycle. It helps urea absorb efficiently into the soil and keeps it readily available for plant use over longer time frames. Stabilized Nitrogen can be divided into two categories: “urease inhibitors” and “nitrification inhibitors".

Urease Inhibitors (NBPT)

Urease inhibitors are designed to inhibit the activity of “urease,” a key enzyme in the metabolic pathway of soil bacteria. When urea granules are deposited on the soil surface, they must be dissolved by water to be absorbed into the soil. If bacteria on the soil surface reach urea before it absorbs into the soil, the bacteria convert urea into amonia gas which immediately volatizes into the atmosphere. Urease inhibitors (such as NBPT) prevent this process from taking place.

ALL-N™ Nitrogen Inhibitor controls nitrogen loss due to volatilization so your turf gets more, the environment gets less, and you get more out of your fertilizer investment. ALL-N™ is a urease inhibitor product that helps reduce loss of urea nitrogen as ammonia until rainfall or water can move urea into the soil. In laboratory tests, ALL-N™ coated urea reduced nitrogen volatilization from 67% to only 10%. By reducing this volatility, more nitrogen can remain in the soil longer than untreated urea. 

SGN: 250

Benefits:

• Reduces nitrogen loss into the atmosphere through volatilization and increases retention in the soil for longer periods of time. 
• Improves color, vigor and overall plant nutrition. 
• Improves return on fertilizer investment and increases customer satisfaction due to improved nitrogen efficiency and uptake. 
  

Urease Inhibitors (NBPT) and Nitrification Inhibitors (DCD)

Stabilized nitrogen fertilizers that contain both urease inhibitor (NBPT) and a nitrification inhibitor (DCD) our considered DUAL inhibitors and offer protection from volatilization and extend the availability of nitrogen in the soil.

UFLEXX® stabilized nitrogen fertilizer is a soluble granular with a dual-inhibitor

technology (NBPT and DCD) that protects against three forms of nitrogen (N) loss - leaching, denitrification and volatilization.
